Background

A formation of objects passed over Entre Ríos province, Argentina, and discharged angel hair. Vitreous particles were recovered. According to the reports they consisted of an 'amalgam of silicon, boron, calcium, and magnesium.' Gordon Creighton described the case in Flying Saucer Review in 1965, and Brian Boldman included it in his 2006 review of angel hair analyses in the Journal of UFO Studies. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
